Chihuahuas in watercolours.

 Watercolour.



'We just got engaged!'  Watercolours on paper, 7.5 by 11 ins approx.





I continued with watercolours this week  This charming dog duo was inspired by a photo from pmp-art.


Aren't they a handsome and cute couple?  I jusr felt like painting them this week.


This first study of the dogs is a simple wash approach, which suits them, I think, and fine for a beginning exploration of the subject.   It was a bit too complex a subject for me to attempt a more flamboyant splashy approach right away.

I tried out 'Moonglow', a dull violet colour from Daniel Smith USA, which seems really good for shadow mixes: not too bright and yet still violet in hue.



Hi from Susie.  She likes this little table in my art room for a mid morning snooze.






Have a nice weekend.

Bye for now!


From June and Susie.
